So, I picked up Civ 6 yesterday and gave it a shot today and, welp, either I'm a massive idiot (this is likely) and/or have no experience of these games (this is true) and/or didn't do any research (this is not true, I spent 3 hours watching youtube videos on tactics).
Not having any success or fun or - and this is the bit that is irking me - understanding of the concepts so far. Does it grow on you? Is it a learned thing where you know that (a) leads to (b) and then you need (c) because that gives you (d) and so on? I thought I could turtle and then just go war mode but then got beat up extensively by some (computer contreolled) dude who took exception to me building a border too close to his city. Had some guys with a harpoon gun on a mother flipping elephant shoot my archer to death which sucked.
Anyway. Is it worth learning and persevering with? Thoughts?
